Shade-tolerant indoor plants grow more vigorously the more shaded they are, with glossy, oil-green leaves
Recently, a few gardening friends said that in their homes, once autumn and winter arrive, it seems even the balcony begins to enter a world of darkness, and many of their favorite flowers seem to face a disaster of survival in these seasons. Indeed, for those of us in city homes that don't get quite enough light, what can we do?
But there's no need to be so pessimistic. For us numerous gardening enthusiasts, no matter what the conditions are, there are always some flowers and green plants that can grow in different environments, so those friends whose homes don't get much sunlight shouldn't worry! Today Hua'er Gu is here to introduce several plants that are very well suited to growing in slightly shady spots, so hurry up and save this!
1 Ivy: Ivy is actually a green plant that really loves semi-shady environments. If you grow it in a place with very strong light, it will instead develop problems with poor growth, and under strong light it is even more prone to scorching and even stunted growth! So it is best to grow it in places in the home where the light isn't too strong! Ivy can be grown in the study, living room and other places. As long as there is some scattered light, it can grow very well.
2. Peperomia: Peperomia, also called jade, is a common decorative green plant placed on office desks, and it is lush green and very beautiful all year round! Peperomia also doesn't like strong light, and it can grow very well in shady, scattered light, making it a great plant for lazy people.
3. Spider plant: Spider plant is a very good indoor green plant that likes to grow in shady, scattered light. Under strong light, its leaf tips are prone to drying out, so it is very suitable to grow this green plant in homes where the light isn't very good. The key point is that spider plant is truly very beautiful, lush green and lovely all four seasons!
4. Inch plant: Inch plant is a plant with unique markings, very suitable for growing indoors in hanging pots. Inch plant needs some scattered light to grow, and direct strong light will cause spots to appear within its markings and affect the beauty of the leaves.
5. Radermachera: Radermachera is a plant with an auspicious meaning, and it is also a shade-tolerant plant. It can grow lush green all year round in a semi-shady environment. Radermachera can be placed in the living room or on the balcony for care, and a small Radermachera can also be placed in the study!
6. Philodendron 'Golden Diamond': Philodendron 'Golden Diamond' can be placed anywhere in the living room, study and so on; as long as it is a semi-shady environment, it can grow very well. If you grow it on a north-facing balcony, that is very good, as it can avoid direct strong light, and in winter there is still some sunlight to help the plant grow.
The above are the plants introduced to you by Hua'er Gu that are very well suited to growing in semi-shady environments. For friends who live in the city and hope to keep some green plants at home, these are a relatively good choice. These plants are all shade-tolerant.
